Around last Chuseok, I looked into five eye clinics and went for consultations at a factory-style clinic plus one with disease care, and the common answer was that only PRK was possible because of corneal asymmetry and thin corneas, so I decided based on the price and the machine and ended up getting Contoura Today PRK plus corneal strengthening. I am extremely satisfied! As for side effects... maybe being overly sensitive to bright light..?? Other than that, I do not think there have been any so far! If anything, PRK is all about the machine, so I recommend an eye clinic that uses a good machine!

Orthodontic Reviews@ortho-reviewFeb 7 I had Smile LASIK Pro and one eye still hasn't recovered vision. Is this a failure?
I had Smile LASIK Pro surgery on 2025.12.26. My left and right vision were originally very different, with left / 0.5 and right / 0.1, so I went with Smile LASIK Pro, which they said was the best option. On the night of the surgery day, my
